Bannon doesn't side with Trump any longer I thought. If so, why no mention that he's a never Trumper.

The wall has been Trump/Bannon BS from the get go.
It would be easy to say Bannon is your typical right-wing con man using hate and B.S. conspiracy theories to advance his right-wing fascist and racist agenda.
But, when fully explored fundamentally Bannon, Trump, et al are just garden variety con-men ripping off people for their own personal gain. Worse yet, the people they rip off (and who are the easiest to rip off) are their own followers and true believers.

Bannon is not a "never Trumper."
The legitimate "never Trumpers" - like the people behind the Lincoln Project - want nothing to do with Steve Bannon. Most decent people don't.

It wasn’t just bannon.
It was also Brian Kolfage, the triple amputee vet who stated the “build the wall fund”.
It should be renamed the bannon/Kolfage slush fund to be totally accurate.
The silence on the right is deafening.

but he's not a Trumper any longer. If you're not a Trumper, you must be a Biden supporter. There's no alternative. So one of Biden's guys just got arrested. Thank you.

I can't remember the last time ANY OF US talked about Steve Bannon... 
Now he's the center of your universe because he got busted.
Good for you spider.

It just never ends. Thief's and con men everywhere. I think that the Go Fund Me has been used to commit fraud constantly.

Do you ever think before you post? The thread is less than 45 minutes old and you post the ignorance above. It just hit the news, mar00n.
For all who are guilty in this, LOCK EM UP !
Wish the DNC would have the same attitude towards rioters that burn bldgs, kill and injure police and the populace. Not holding my breath

Southern district of New York will indict anybody who ever had lunch with Trump.
It’s an election year.

Southern District has quite a few pro Trump personnel
Remember Southern District is Guiliani's stomping ground and one of the places that most likely feed him information and rumors. It is hardly an anti-Trump hangout. Frankly I don't believe the vast majority of FBI agents, and prosecutors from the US Attnorney's office play partisan games.
There's a report that Trump pal Khris Kobach who spent time as chairman of Trump's election fraud committee (which found no fraud) made a statement in 2017 that Trump supported the private effort to raise funds for his wall. No one was closer to Trump at the time than Kobach. If there is such a thing as a "swamp" in DC it is occupied by many Trump cronies too. That would include most of his cabinet. Trump's cesspool is deep and wide.
The Trump groupies spend time with the Q-Anon wackos while Trump and his pals bank millions (with the pandemic money it's more like billions) of taxpayers money. Main Street small business people (many of whom are Repulicans) get squat.

How could anyone be stupid enough to donate to a group formed by private citizens ,when the President said the wall would be built by government workers, presumably funded with tax money and money gotten from the government of Mexico. A sucker is born every minute!

By 2025, the fully built wall will be a non issue.
